0 Comments

 
March is Women’s History Month, and March 8 marks International Women’s Day. Kristen R. Ghodsee, a professor of Russian and East European studies at Penn and author of  “Why Women Have Better Sex Under Socialism and Other Arguments for Economic Independence,” talks to Penn Today about how International Women’s Day began and why the U.S. has been late to embrace it.

""Hi Josephine. We sell your wonderful book in our little shop @BrigadeMuseum
. Your story is a great way to educate young people on the difficulties endured by trailblazers such as yourself. It’s also a great way to show aspiring firefighters that it’s a career for everyone !"

"I have a first edition of Red Watch. Great read.I think I've read most on your list, but two I would recommend are, Lifting the Kid @Kfullen76
& Fire Woman @FireWomanJo1
Two excellent reads and books the majority of the FRS can learn from."


​".. One of the best biography I have ever read"

​"Josephine paved the way for females in the fire service and should be justly proud of her achievements. This book is an excellent record of her fire service adventure and is a first-class read.”

​"This book is an excellent read! This one had me enthralled and I read it in just a few hours ! Brilliant insight into the world of firefighting and Jo's private life too .. had me laughing in places, crying in others ... fabulous"​
